[Will Keir]"How is saving done in FCPX?"

There is no manual saving in FCP X. Everything is automatically saved.

[Will Keir]"Where can I look for all my timelines/events?"

The easiest way to find your project is to open the Library Browser (Window | Show Libraries ⇧⌘1), select your Library and switch to "Show clips in list view" (View | Browser | As List ⌥⌘2) and scroll to the top of the list and you'll see all of your Projects grouped together. It should be in there. Doube-click on the project to open it in the timeline.

You should be aware that FCP X organizes your work into a hierarchy of Library -> Events -> Projects & Media. When you started your new Project, FCP X asked you which Event you want to add the project to. You should probably get into the habit of remembering where this is. ;-)

At the top of the Library in the browser you'll see a set of default Smart Collections. There's one for Projects. In there you should find your edited sequence (project). Click on it to load it into the timeline window. FCPX constantly saves automatically. There is no "save" or "save as" function.

[Will Keir]"I checked all the library's. Couldn't find it. Where would an XML be saved?"

The XML would have been its own event within the library you have open when you opened it. The project should be contained within that event and library. There's isn't any other XML except the original one. Where did that XML originally come from?

Things aren't adding up. I can't find the XML project anywhere. I beginning to think my memory must be the mistake. Possibility I opened the XML with Premiere and associated the work I did late with FCPX for some odd reason.
